Bonnie raised her chin and said with a hint of pride, "See? I told you to stick with me. Trust me-I can guarantee your safety."
When they entered the villa, Ivor did not trust the Nidhoggs' leader much. The former only felt compelled to join Bonnie because of his interests. However, his trust in Bonnie increased after seeing her safely navigate through two traps.
'Although I've yet to trust this guy fully, I feel I can lower my guard slightly now.'
Ivor gathered his thoughts and responded, "Yeah, you're skilled regarding traps."
Bonnie knew his praise was genuine, which increased her favorable impression of him. However, she quickly regained her composure and focused on their next step.
"Follow my every step from now on, and don't move alone. Only step where I step. That's the only way you'll stay safe, understand?"Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
After safely avoiding the traps, she proved her capabilities and reinforced the idea of Ivor staying as close as possible. Ivor did not argue, knowing better than to risk his life by straying.
He replied, "Got it."
'My wife's waiting for me. If something happens to me, what'll happen to Bonnie? I must ensure my safety for her sake.'
Bonnie continued to lead Ivor forward. She even disarmed two more traps along the way. Her ease in dealing with the traps made everything seem almost playful. Although Ivor remained silent, he followed closely and learned as much as possible.
Meanwhile, Falcon and his accomplices were in the basement receiving reports of their disabled traps.
One accomplice watching the screen exclaimed, "Your boss is amazing at disarming traps! We spent so much time setting them up, and she disarmed most of them in less than half an hour! That's incredible!"
Falcon felt a sense of pride. "Of course. If my boss weren't this amazing, she wouldn't be the organization's leader. How else could she have taught me so much?"
Although he had betrayed Bonnie, having such a capable leader was something to be proud of. Still, that was all in the past.
The accomplice smacked the back of Falcon's head. "Don't forget that we're enemies now! The better your boss is, the harder it is to deal with her. She has already disarmed most of our traps. What'll we do if she catches us?"
Falcon rubbed the back of his head and glared at his accomplice. "We still have several more traps remaining. Why worry?"
"With the speed at which she's disarming them, do you think a few more traps will keep her occupied much longer? I bet they'll be here in ten minutes."
A sense of solemnity flashed in Falcon's eyes as he said confidently, "I made the remaining traps much more challenging to disarm. Just watch. My boss will fall for at least one of them."
Although Bonnie knew Falcon well, he knew her well, too. Everything depended on whether or not the former could solve the remaining traps. If she succeeded, Falcon would admit defeat graciously. However, Bonnie would face a considerable misfortune if she failed.
